On old pc there is no "boot from usb" entry in the BIOS. And on new systems you need to configure it in the BIOS, but thats a security risk (everbody can then boot a usb-device). An entry in grub could be password-protected. |

When grub is booted, I would like the ability to choose "Boot from usb-stick" (in grub!), so grub is already loaded...
